I was in the same boat probably 8 years ago. Everyone here told me to raise my prices, and I was super hesitant to do it. I did it, started subbing out design work, and I was selling bigger jobs, and higher quantities, and I wasn't trying to do design work. I just focused on production. That...

I just started using the Leister Hemtek two days ago. We did (40) 4' X 6' banners and (3) 5' X 16' banners with it over the last couple days. I was kinda frustrated with it at first, and had to do a bunch of test pieces, but once I figured out the method to it, I really fell in love with it...

Anyone know if this is an actual font? Wondering if it's custom.

I ran one out once on my 310 and had that same result. I just make sure and never run them out now, and I've got ridiculous miles on these print heads since I haven't done that again.

Never mind, I found it. Weird Google found it before the 101 search engine did.

So this is going back a ways, but does anyone remember the story "The Professor" talked about when a customer has a raster file and converters it to a PDF and thinks it's vector? All I can remember is it was coined a "soccer taco". I'm trying to find it on here cause I know we had a thread...

That last video appears to have made it happen. Thank you for sharing that!

I put a job in Onyx that it apparently hates, and it opens up, but won't let me do anything but force close it, and do it all over again. I'm trying to figure out how I can go into a file folder and delete the file that's hanging it up, but I've looked through all the onyx folders and can't...

I ran it for years in my Mimaki's when I had them. I'm sure I saved a butt ton of money. They both kinda started giving me trouble after a couple years, but that could just be the nature of a solvent printer and how much more maintenance they need than a latex too.

I'd be interested to know what people have had with results using aftermarket. I had a Mimaki JV3 for like 7 years and never had any trouble with it, but it did seem to require a lot more maintenance (solvent) once I switched to Triangle or Bordeaux the last couple years. I also had a Mimaki...

We've done lots of Mesh and 13oz this size and never had any issues. Kind of depends how it's being installed how much reinforcement you put into it around the edges and corners though.

Man, those are only good if the customer learns their lesson, turns out to be a good dude, and has no problem paying sky high prices for a rush job for being a turd the first time.

I've been with Vonage for like 12 years now. It's served me well. I'm a one man shop, but it can ring my cell and the shop at the same time, and whichever phone I pick up gets the call, or forward it to 5 numbers at once, or how I do it now is I just have my voicemail tell people to email me...

This is an interesting thread. I've decided that the world of walk-ins isn't for me anymore. Heck, I don't really even answer the phone anymore, my voicemail has my email address, and if you aren't capable of sending me an email, then I don't have time for you, because I have to work at all...

I snapped mine like two years ago and fought with it forever till I realized I could just steal one off the takeup reel. I was thinking I'd called HP and they told me hundreds of dollars too...I figured I'd just fight it instead of paying that crazy money.

That was the first thing I did...didn't fix it.

I could always do it super easy when I had my Mimaki, but since I went latex 4 years ago, it's not that simple now.

It might be coming for you, cause mine got worse. I'm just trying to figure out what's triggering it.

So maybe a week or two ago I was working in my RIP and I noticed it was refreshing every couple mins to the point it was getting annoying, because I couldn't click anything and it stay clicked. Well, fast forward now and the thing literally refreshes the jobs in the "ready to print" and in the...

I think I had to put one (or two, I don't remember how it's setup) when I ran an ink cartridge dry the first couple months and burnt one out totally, but no, never had to do anything with them yet since I've kept my ink from running down below 10%. I'm sure my colors are off and have shifted...
